The answer depends on whether it is the linear dimensions that are increased by 38% or the area.
Oh, dude, so like, if you shade seven eighths of a rectangle, that means one eighth is not shaded. And like, one eighth is like what, 12.5%? So, the percent of the rectangle that is not shaded would be 12.5%. Easy peasy, right?
Well, darling, if you shaded all but three eighths of the rectangle, then the shaded area is 5/8 of the total rectangle. To find the percentage of the rectangle that is not shaded, you subtract the shaded area from 100%. So, 100% - 62.5% (5/8 as a percentage) = 37.5%. Voilà, 37.5% of the rectangle is not shaded.
Yes. The ratio of its length to width is only 0.0055 percent different from the golden ratio.
Two eighths of anything is 25% of it.
